Other news outlets didn't report anything that I saw and many of them posted articles in the last hour or so. Looks like it's under control. |

Russian Propaganda Now Shows Ukraine as “Enslaved Brother,” Invasion as “Just Reclamation” - (this article was just posted)
The "news" sites in the US which parrot Kremlin/RT News/Tass/Sputnik all were singing from this very same sheet of music in 2014. |

At this point I don't think it's going to happen. It's all bluster and bullshitting. All the US troop movements are pointless because Biden already said there is nothing Putin can do to make the US get involved. NATO is a joke and it weren't for the US it would have fallen apart long ago. Germany is 100% in bed with Russia and won't lift a finger to intervene. If Russia does decide to invade and try to take over Ukraine then I hope the Ukrainians sabotage the pipeline to screw over Germany and Europe.

I think it was a really good speech for the potato. He is calling Putin's bluffs and holding the Russian's accountable. What does Putin do when everyone points out over the next few days that his troops are still heading for Ukraine and not pulling back?? One thing is for sure, Lockmart is going to sell a shit ton of new F-35's to Europe this year.

I'm starting to think that East Germany took West Germany over and not the other way around. Germany's new "leader" appears to be feckless. Yes, Ukraine should line the pipeline with high explosives at multiple points. |

After 8 years of conflict it gets normal. People away from the affected areas don't see anything or have their lives altered. It's like when someone from North Dakota asks why we need a border wall in the US, down by Mexico. If you aren't directly experiencing it, it's easy to not care. |

They've gone full on Baghdad Bob in my opinion. Russia has mobilized a massive invasion force, what they have positioned is not the sort of thing a military does as an exercise. If I were in Ukraine I'd be getting out yesterday. Bad stuff is coming for them. |

Cyber attacks, GPS fuckery, visible troops in sight of the actual border - not just staging a few miles away. If they are bluffing, they are really selling it hard. I'm guessing this kicks off between now and 4-6 hours. I really hope I am wrong. Good Luck Ukraine.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By ArmedKulak: There's a US Army Blackhawk hovering around Milec, Poland callsign EVAC01. FORTE11(Global Hawk) seems to be fleeing from the borders... I'm watching that too. It was scanning along the border on a typical route and just turned away and moved to the center of Ukraine airspace. It's been staying much closer to the border the last few weeks. Russians have probably been hammering it with EW the last couple of days to push it away. |

There have been a shit ton of C17 in the air over Europe and making trips back and forth to the US over the last week. Multiple at once in the area I assume bringing in gear. Now there is only 1. Kinda looks like our military thinks it is happening and is getting out of dodge.
